my friend who was driving us to secret garden party (and providing the tents and general camping knowledge) has swine flu. get well soon poppy. so i am going to attempt to drive on the motorway for the first time. in my parents funny japanese car. this may be my last blog. luckily guy doesnt need me anymore. he can finish the album without me. ok this is not funny. i am going to drive very slowly and carefully. not too slowly cause that is dangerous. i am going to look for a motorway driving tips website in a minute. this is way more scary than the four shows im going to play at the festival. once i've done this i can do anything. and when i get back (safe and in one piece and the passengers in one piece too) the album will be mixed and ready for final feedback from the artist who has all the perspective of someone who has driven on the motorway and learnt how to put up a tent.

we've had some wonderful guests recently...
